Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 682

Chapter 680 The Collision between Humanity and Heaven

“I don’t know which kindhearted soul gave me this system, but this fragment of the Immortal Ladder has been a real help.”

Jiang Li arrived in the Immortal Realm, his Mahayana aura like a dragon emerging from the abyss, roaring in all directions.

Venerable Shenzang was using every means at his disposal to control the Immortal Realm and quickly escape Jiang Li. He had never imagined that Jiang Li would actually use the Immortal Ladder to return to the Immortal Realm.

“Where on earth did this Immortal Ladder come from?” Venerable Shenzang roared, unable to comprehend the current situation.

If Jiang Li already had the Immortal Ladder, why hadn’t he used it before? If he didn’t have it, where did this Immortal Ladder come from now?

“It’s the system! It must be the Counterattack System!” Venerable Shenzang gritted his teeth. He had seen Jiang Li’s past, knew the system’s name, and knew that it contained a quest called “Search for the Immortal Ladder Fragments.

” “Who created this system?” Venerable Shenzang was certain it wasn’t his future self, but the system seemed so familiar. How could he explain it?

No matter what, escaping was paramount.

“Remove…”

Venerable Shenzang was about to use his spatial ability when he collided head-on with Jiang Li’s fist, sending him flying backward.

“How could I let you escape again?”

Before Venerable Shenzang could react, Jiang Li grabbed him by the collar and slammed him to the ground. The shockwave spread outward like a hurricane, crumbling palaces and snapping trees wherever it passed. Immortals caught in the shockwave were swept away and slammed against the walls of the immortal realm. The immortals coughed up blood, horrified. An attack that barely even reflected the aftermath of a battle had left them in such disarray. Just how much force could Venerable Shenzang withstand, being directly attacked by Jiang Li?

Boom—

as if belatedly, the heavens shattered, sending chunks of immortal soil and stars plummeting to the next heaven.

“Ahem.” Venerable Shenzang had never been so utterly humiliated. From the moment he gained consciousness, he had been divine, omniscient, and almighty.

Even the Daozu, known as the ultimate immortal, was no match for him. He was the very faith of the immortals, and upon seeing him, all trembled in fear and bowed in worship.

“Do you really think I can’t defeat you?” Venerable Shenzang was furious. Escape was hopeless. Forced to this point by Jiang Li, he had no choice but to fight to the death.

“You disrespect Heaven, mortal! You will bear the wrath of Heaven!”

Venerable Shenzang no longer held back, fighting with all his might, unleashing his full potential.

At this moment, Venerable Shenzang was enveloped in the aura of the Dao, omnipotent. Wielding the Dao sword, he spoke the celestial law, and exhaled the Dao’s voice. Every gesture embodied the laws of nature. Countless immortals, witnessing Venerable Shenzang in this state, were instantly enlightened, their previously obscure Dao becoming crystal clear.

The Immortal Emperor, the Buddha, and the Confucian Sage—the three Hunyuan Wuji Immortals—stood afar in the Heaven Beyond Heaven, observing the enraged Venerable Shenzang and the calm Jiang Li.

In the entire immortal realm, only the three of them were worthy enough to spectate, yet they dared only to stand at the farthest point, the Heaven Beyond Heaven.

Immortals and gods were like straw dogs. At this moment, they were no different from mortals, all awaiting the outcome of this battle.

The Dao Sword glowed, countless Dao patterns densely interwoven and imprinted upon its blade.

The Dao Sword was immeasurable, and wielded by the Divine Treasure, its power was unleashed to its fullest extent, even more powerful than when wielded by the Dao Ancestor!

“Slash!”

The Dao Sword shone with a dazzling light, like billions of Dao lotuses blooming, filling the heavens and earth, threatening to sever Jiang Li’s head.

This strike transcended the Dao of swordsmanship, becoming part of the laws of space.

What is a sword? A sword is used to cut down. No matter how sharp the sword, no matter how advanced the swordsmanship, ultimately, as long as it can cut through the opponent, it is a good sword, a good swordsmanship.

The sword swung by the Divine Treasure was the embodiment of the laws of space, capable of severing everything!

The sword’s sharpness and speed were so extreme that both the fleeing immortals and the Hunyuan Wuji Immortals watching from the outer heavens felt a flash of light before their eyes, a moment of daze.

No one saw the sword clearly!

Facing this sword light that surpassed the sword’s way, Jiang Li struck with a punch.

The sword light was originally ethereal, but upon colliding with Jiang Li’s fist, it became solid.

This was not Venerable Shenzang’s intention, but the power of Jiang Li’s punch!

Snap—

the physical sword light broke in two.

Though the sword light was gone, the sword energy remained. It struck Jiang Li’s face like a gentle breeze, making it impossible to even blink.

The remaining sword energy landed behind Jiang Li, severing a corner of the immortal realm!

“My Great Sun Tathagata sword technique is far inferior to this sword!” The Buddha clasped his hands together. He delved into the Dao of Space. He had spent countless years studying, but in the end, it was not as good as this ultimate sword strike.

Jiang Li threw punch after punch, his steps intertwined as he quickly approached Venerable Shenzang.

A hum—

Jiang Li’s final punch landed on the source of the sword light, the Dao Sword. The Dao Sword emitted a humming sound and then disintegrated, transforming into Dao runes.

“Ancient Death Talisman!” Venerable Shenzang drew a talisman using Dao patterns. The talisman was so complex that just looking at it made one dizzy.

Dao patterns are the highest-level talisman drawing material. Even the most proficient immortals in the immortal world can only use simple talismans with Dao patterns.

Drawing such complex patterns as Venerable Shenzang could do was like a fairy tale.

“Talisman!”

The talisman was naturally formed, flawless, and contained the laws of life and death. The entire immortal world was plunged into a sinister atmosphere. The immortals felt a chill down their spines, as if their time had come and their souls were about to leave their bodies.

“Death!”

Venerable Shenzang hurled his talisman, attempting to drag Jiang Li into the underworld. Facing a rule-level attack, Jiang Li didn’t even need to fight. His body radiated boundless Yin De, a dazzling light that silently dissolved the ancient death talisman and swept away the gloomy atmosphere that enveloped the immortal realm.

“Yin De leads to sainthood, and lifespan increases!” Venerable Shenzang was astonished, instantly recognizing Jiang Li’s Yin De and lifespan.

If Jiang Li died, the rules of reincarnation would directly force Hou Tuhuang to abdicate, making Jiang Li the master of the underworld!

If Jiang Li survived, his lifespan would continue to increase, and the loss of lifespan would far outweigh the gain!

“Is the 2,400th Heavenly Dao here?”

“Why is no one answering? Ask again.”

“Is the 2,400th Heavenly Dao here?”

“Still no one is answering.”

The irritated voice of the Heavenly Dao in the parallel world rang out. Venerable Shenzang did not dare to lose his concentration at all. Facing Jiang Li, if he was distracted for even a moment, he would die without a burial place.

Only by fighting to the death with undivided attention could there be a glimmer of hope!

Venerable Shenzang severed his connection with the parallel world and fought with Jiang Li.

One side represented the Heavenly Dao, the other represented the Human Dao. The collision between the two was like an instant, and also like eternity, illuminating the ages. The

power of their fight was so great that not only did the heavens and the worlds shake, but it even transcended time and affected the long river of time.

At this point in the long river of time, waves suddenly rose up, and the waves surged, confusing the past, present and future, and also made a ball of light completely lose its direction!
